Methods |
Study design: prospective randomized study Sample size calculation: no information available |
|
Participants |
Number of randomized participants: 44 Inclusion criteria: adults, ASA I to III, undergoing thyroidectomy or breast cancer surgery Exclusion criteria: no information available |
|
Interventions |
Anaesthesia: induced with propofol 2 mg/kg and fentanyl 5 µg/kg; maintenance: no information available NMBA: single intubating dose: rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg Comparison: sugammadex 2 mg/kg (n = 20) vs neostigmine 50 µg/kg + atropine 25 µg/kg (n = 24) Administration time of sugammadex or neostigmine: reappearance of T2 |
|
Outcomes | Time to recovery of TOF 90% and mean increase in BIS indices per each minute after reversal | |
Notes |
Publication type: meeting abstract Country: Croatia Conversions: none Authors’ conclusions: An increase in BIS index registered after reversal of rocuronium effects was faster during the recovery period among patients who were given sugammadex rather than neostigmine. Although a rapid increase in BIS indices was registered in the sugammadex group, more sensitive measurements are needed to confirm the clinical value of this observation Contact: first trial author Slavica Kvolik contacted by e‐mail: slavica.kvolik@os.t‐com.hr on 14.10.2015; no reply received |
